Four more poems stemming from #fieryverse prompts in the past several days… trying out different scenarios and describing them in an efficient, Twitter-word-count limited way. I’ve found that these prompts are a good stretching of creativity. The prompt is in bold within each poem…

Gathering together
our strength
abounds.
Contentious
sometimes,
but upon parting
until
next time,
we are still
grateful.

*****

Dressed or
in various
stages ofundress,
I believe
she can
see right into
the depths
of me.

*****

There is no
question
of with
or without,
for
I am simply
better
with her.

*****

Maybe
tomorrow
she will leave,
for the
walls reverberate
with his shouts
of abuse
and belittling.
